  1. Pick the structure, not the subject. Choose a carousel whose shape fits an idea you already have: the hook pattern, the slide count, the way it ends.
  2. Keep what made it work. Note the first-slide promise, how much text each slide carries and what the last slide asks for.
  3. Write it about your world. Swap in your own topic, examples and voice. Credit the creator if you borrow something specific.

Which carousel format works best for ai & tech?

What is an outlier carousel?

An outlier carousel got more likes and comments than its creator usually gets. Top Carousels divides each carousel’s likes + comments by the median of up to 20 carousels from the same creator posted around the same time, so 3× means three times that creator’s usual engagement.
